I can't see any star.
The code has bugs.

HI!
The starfield does only work with arround 300 stars on my mobile-PC with 2.6GhZ Pentium IV and GeForce4 32MB. Windows 2000, Latest Servicepack.
If I increase the starsammount I see the stars flying for arround 1 second, then the application quits. Increase it more to 30000 I only see a black screen, then exiting the app.
I will test it on my desktop in some minutes.

Just activate the debugger, you'll see that there isn't any check for array bounds...

On Amiga Turrican 1 is more difficult and longer than T2.
I finished both two on Amiga after loooong playing.
I didn't finished T3, but, you can be sure, someday i'll do.
Here is another fine web where are old Thalion games free to download:

I like C. Huelsbeck music a lot, but i prefer Jochen Hippel's.

The question about turrican 2 is not to finish it...
It's about with how much lifes, bonuses and powerups you finish with!
Damn i know every secreat area, bonus area, boss and pixel of the game...

If you know it just so well, why don't you re-code it in PB?

You are right num3, The question about turrican 2 is not to finish it...
